Certification filters

A certification filter creates a subset of ServiceNow records to audit, typically from
configuration items (CI) of a certain type, such as all UNIX servers in a specific
datacenter.

However, you can define a filter for any ServiceNow table by using any set of
system-supported conditions. Audited records identified by a filter for expected attributes or
relationships, depending on the audit type.

You can create multiple versions of a filter, reactivate inactive versions, and select the
version you want to use in a template or a certification schedule. Only the active versions of a
filter are available for selection in template records. You can use a single filter for multiple
certification templates or schedules.

You can create as many versions of a filter as necessary. You can designate which versions are active and available for selection in Compliance template records, Governance Risk and Compliance control test definitions, or Data Certification schedule definitions.
